Description: Peer into comics’ most prodigious imagination in the “Beta” issue of the Jack Kirby Collector (#81, with 84 full-color pages)! We'll take a tour of his wildest, most experimental ideas, characters, and series, from the unhinged lunacy of Fighting American, to the non-stop inventiveness of Jimmy Olsen! There’s interviews with both Stan Lee and Jack himself conducted in the 1960s (before they were the polished pros we think of today), ideas that weren't as well thought out as they should've been, the failed genius behind Kamandi's "UFO Saga", mysteries behind the creation of the Hulk and Magneto, and more! Plus there's Mark Evanier’s Kirby Tribute Panel from the 2019 Heroes Con (with Mike Royer, Jim Amash, and Rand Hoppe), a pencil art gallery, a Golden Age Simon & Kirby story, and our cover featuring Kirby's unused illo for Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen #141, inked by Vince Colletta! Edited by John Morrow.
